Being Perfect

High achievers with high goals. Do the best. Be the best. Have your S&*# all together. And, yet, which one of us has it ALL together? Who do we personally know that fits that mold? Ummm, that would be no one. At least, not all the time.

And here’s the thing about perfectionism. Many times, an over-concern for doing the ‘right’ thing, may have you doing nothing at all. So can we really call someone the best if they are stacking the deck to make sure they always ‘win?’ I think not, gentle person.

So, next time you feel like stopping yourself because you may not do ‘it’ perfectly…think again. Challenge your perfectionism and get your hands dirty. Risk it. Take a chance when you truly don’t know the outcome. Make a mistake (or is it really?). Grow and learn.

Now, that’s what I call being perfect.
